Geometry in Construction
Geometry in Construction is a course developed by Contextual Learning Concepts of Loveland High School, Colorado as a new method of teaching geometry in high schools. The class is taught collaboratively between the CTE and math departments as a Math-in-CTE model. This curriculum integration enhances math that is embedded in CTE course content. Students learn geometry as a part of a practical experiential course.
NSERVE has provided the professional development training for teachers in our region. The grants secured by NSERVE for our schools help provide the tools, machines and materials for schools to implement this course.
Geometry in Construction is currently offered at Evanston Township High School, Maine East High School and Glenbrook South High School. There are plans to expand the program to other schools in the NSERVE region.
